The Movie Hiden Figures, is the untold story of Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughman and Mary Jackson – they are the brilliant african-american women working at the NASA. On this movie their is still a discrimination from black africans and white americans.
In computing we used many formulas that can help us to solve any mathematical problems, like what katherine johnson do, she used ancient formulas and new formulas to solve the problem, and to get the coordinates, the distance, speed, and the angle where the Capsule land and she also said that math is always dependable.

In engineering even agirl can be a engineer, Mary jackson was the first arfrican-american aeronautical engineer, she don’t give up, she make ways to give her right to styudy engineering, In enginering they build complicated products, and systems, then make it sure that the things they build is good and they test it if it works properly or not.

Dorothy Vaughman NASA’s first African-American Supervisor; as a fortran specialist on the frontier electronic computing. She was good in mechanics and she was the who make runs the equipments, to get the possible coordinates.

They made the capsule in a limited period of time and It was test three times and it was successful. And the Apollo II succesfully land to the moon, because of the Unity of the employees of NASA.

With today’s technology, Computing, engineering, and other task will be done quickly. This computers finish some task as faster as it can. Unlike the old times our mathematicians used a pen to compute any mathematical problems.
